International Patient Coordinator

Managing your health care and a long-term stay in a foreign setting can be a daunting experience. For this reason, UC San Diego Health System provides personalized service for all international patients through our international patient coordinator.

Our coordinator is your advocate within UC San Diego Health System, and can help you access all of the special services you would expect from a world-class health care system.

When you initially request your referral to UC San Diego Health System, our coordinator will first guide you through the process for becoming a patient.

During the process of becoming a patient and throughout your care, our coordinator is interested in knowing how we can help you with any special needs or requests. Our coordinator can also help make sure that your medical team members respond to any medical coordination needs you have or any concerns that you express.
